RTEATHERr ' V Partly cloudy; Colder? Z 5 25 VOLUME XLVI Worl d News Edited by Jim McAden CHAMBERLAIN SUGGESTS ANGLO-ITALIAN TREATY London, Feb. 21 Following the resignation of Foreign Sec retary Anthony Eden from his . cabinet yesterday, Prime Minis ter Neville Chamberlain stated to a noisy house of commons to- , day that Britain had agreed to begin negotiations for a new Anglo-Italian understanding in Borne immediately. Chamberlain declared that a refusal to negotiate would bring relations to such a point "at which ultimately war between us might become inevitable." Very often interrupted by jeers, the prime minister, speak ing for a solid hour, attempted to explain the resignation of Eden yesterday, whom critics . say Chamberlain sacrificed in the face of German and Italian threats. Eden, defending himself be fore Chamberlain's speech, de clared that settlement of the Spanish issue was more impor- rant at mis moment than any Italian settlement. The prime minister conferred with Count Dino Grandi, Italian minister to Great Britain, before making his speech to the com mons. Chamberlain stated that: "What we are seeking to do is to get general appeasement throughout Europe which will give us peace."

The action was taken on a motion by Democratic Leader Barkley of Kentucky. . The Southerners who had bought the bill said they took the action to mean that the lynch bill would not be brought up again this session. Senator Barkley stated that he had done all he could to get a vote on the measure, but could see no hope, of obtaining unani mous consent to limit the de bate. The relief measure, previous ly passed by the house, is de signed to increase work relief rUs to a total of 2,500,000 per sons.
